Just For Fun! My new furry friend

8 Upvotes

So I went Saturday to get my new furry friend. I got picked him out and got his outfit and shoes. I made him a necklace. But I’m waiting on the hat I bought him. It was supposed to come today but for some reason all the packages in general I’m waiting for didn’t come today so the hat was one of them. Today was so crappy. I just wanted the hat for my friend so then I could show you him and see if you could guess who I named him after but I’m stuck waiting and it makes me really sad 😭

My New BAB Been searching for a Pride for awhile, very picky on how the fabric is assembled and the facial structure/expression.

Hi I’m a build a bear frog lover, this is my dream pride frog, I’ve been searching for awhile now for one to pop up in my budget and to my liking… I started collecting awhile ago, and now have every 16inch version other than frappe. Idk if I want frappe, I’m very picky on patterned frogs and I don’t see many posted online so I haven’t had the chance to scoop one up yet.

I’m extremely picky about patterned frogs, I must enjoy looking at them, visually pleasing. This one in particular spoke to me.

Do you think they’re cute?

Inquiry ☁️🩷 My Sweet Piano 🩷☁️ - Bummed Out Update

Thumbnail
gallery
40 Upvotes

Hi all, this is a follow up post to yesterday's post, which I hope to tag very soon! I was able to buy the My Sweet Piano plush and her dress from Build-A-Bear's website, and I was so excited to stuff her up today 🩷

Well, the good news is that she is stuffed and stitched closed, so I do officially own a My Sweet Piano plush! In the first picture, she is shown with her dress. For an average My Sweet Piano plush, I find BAB's version to be very flat when stuffed, and her dress is far too big for her. Thus explains the second picture, which is her wearing the wedding dress, which is a much better fit for her! ☁️

So, here are my biggest complaints: the plush is poor quality, the sherpa texture is a nightmare, mine arrived extra messed up, and her dress is already fraying.

Now, I really hate to complain, but I just want people to be aware of these possible quality issues that My Sweet Piano may have! The remaining pictures are showing the following:

#3: her hand arrived with this brown stain, which I believe came off with bear cleaner, but still, just something to note!

#4: a part in her ear which had a sewing hiccup, and had an extra bit of the fur/fabric poking out. I was able to cut this off, but now I'm unsure if her ears are weird looking now or not.

#5: her arm into her hand, showing a part where the pink fabric peeks through the white fabric. Also, the meshing underneath is very spacious in general, and her fur seems patchy overall.

#6: the ribbon on her dress is fraying!

I am a Build-A-Bear Workshop employee, but I'm unsure how to go about getting a refund/returning/replacing this plush. Aside from just a lack of knowledge, I'm unsure if they could even replace soemthing that's out of stock, so I'm thinking I'll just hang onto this plush anyway? Not sure 😭

Not only does "Dinos & Dragons" bring you to these "Zoo Animals" too, but also worth noting there's a highlighted clothing collection called "Y2K Fashion" that just immediately takes you to a 404 page too.

And yet every time I try to visit another BABW website (excluding Australia), I just get redirected here 🙃

I saw the leaks about him and saw no one talking about it which im not surprised since he was over shadowed by the frosted sanrio and chinchilla releases and honestly didn’t really care for him but after seeing him he looks so cute i might get him.

27 Upvotes

While I'm patiently waiting for my big guy to arrive, can I please see photos from those of you who have the teal tinsel BAB frog that Walmart put out a few years ago? I'm one that visually needs to see the size because photos never do any of them justice on how big they actually are. I found a really good deal on a used one (seller's photos, not mine) and I just would like to see how they look in person and how they have held up for you over time. I have heard they don't have a seam like regular BABs, but I'm sure there's somewhere that I can easily seam rip and ladder stitch back up to be able to wash and restuff it myself (as I've already heard stores won't restuff any of the jumbo ones that were available from Walmart).

Thanks in advance! I can't wait for this big guy to join my froggy crew.

Happy birthday big lad. You turned up in a box on my doorstep 7 years ago today and we've been inseperable ever since. I don’t think I’d still be here if I hadn’t got you.

I got you your favourite, a ridiculously expensive steak, a bowl of fries and bourbon.

Inquiry Anyone used AllStitch for their clothes?

I think about Yak Frost with every passing day and I dream of painting a Rise of the Guardians Jack Frost hoodie for him so we can be twinnies. I found a suitable hoodie on AllStitch and wondered if anyone has experience with them? The medium hoodie seemed like it would maybe fit best but I think they have a large as well. They don't seem like a scam site either?
